Mark Vader Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 The Bills should be furious over the embarrassment they received against the Bucs. I think this fire will carry over into this weeks game, and they should come out swinging. The offense must be unleashed and become agressive. We need to see Losman throwing some deep passes against a Falcons secondary that can be beaten. Enough of these dump passes and screens, we need to see if we have some fire power on offense, we need Lee Evans to go deep more. I also think that Losman has to scramble more to keep defenses honest. That would definitely open up the passing game. I also do not see the Falcons as an elite team. They still have no legitimate threat at WR. Dez White? Michael Jenkins? Brian Finneran? Roddy White is only a rookie. If the defense can keep Alge Crumpler's catches to a minimum and force Michael Vick to beat them singlehandedly, the Bills will win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this team is going to reach for greatness, there's no time like the present to step up and make it happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indiragandhi'sthong Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 I think the Bills win - especially with Vick knicked up ... Bills 21 - 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fan in San Diego Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 I'm hoping the Bills get pissed and really motivated to make up for the turd they laid in Tampa Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BackInDaDay Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 MM has publicly lit a fire under McGahee's ass. I'm sure many more private fires have been lit. By Sunday, this squad will respond. Watch the O-line and Willis. I believe Atlanta was built a bit light, but quick. A large, highly-motivated O could put them on their heels. As far as our D and STs. Time to stop giving interviews and get back to business, and they're about the best there are in the business when their heads are screwed on right.

34-78-83 Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 I think beating ATL would be a larger feat than some folks may think this week. Their quick D-line will try to take away the outside and get around our mammoth blockers. They have very good TE production in Crumpler in all phases. Dunn is quick and smart. Jenkins is an up and comer at WR. I'm drawing a blank on the kid corner but he has been playing some good ball as well. I'm just glad this game is at home because we're gonna need the help to win this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffal0 Bill5 Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Welcome back to the friendly confines of the Ralph. I do have a nagging fear however that an 0-2 Atlanta may come in pretty fired up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffal0 Bill5 Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Despite my glaring lack of attention to detail, they weren't great in week 1, and they are coming off a loss. Certainly enough to give them some motivation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 I'm drawing a blank on the kid corner but he has been playing some good ball as well. Deangelo Hall and yes he has. He starts for any team in the NFL except Tampa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Vader Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 I will agree that the Falcons have talent on the defense: Patrick Kerney, Keith Brooking, & DeAngelo Hall. Still there are parts of their defense that can be exploited, particularly their secondary. After Hall you have Jason Webster, Bryan Scott & Keion Carpenter. This secondary should not strike much fear into other teams offense's. Which is why I think the Bills should attempt to open up the offense and have more deep passes attempted.

Nanker Posted September 21, 2005 Author Share Posted September 21, 2005 Beating Atlanta equals greatness? Damn, I guess Mike Holmgren is safe at the end of the year. 448636[/snapback] Perhaps I should have said "begin to make it happen." But put another way, they ain't going to be considered "great" if they don't beat Atlantis. (ok, Atlanta) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just glad this game is at home because we're gonna need the help to win this one. 448828[/snapback] This just about sums up my feelings on this game. Many here don't seem to buy the Vick hype. I happen to think that he is one of the most talented players in NFL history. If he really is injured, this and the home field could be enough to give the Bills an edge, but even at that it will be very close unless we can run the football.

Ghost of BiB Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 I think home field gives the bills an edge in what should be a close game. Won't be 100 degrees either, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
